Woodlawn, also known locally as the Black House, is a 180-acre (73 ha) historic estate located a quarter mile from downtown Ellsworth, Maine, at 19 Black House Drive. The Black House Museum is open to the public seasonally and the grounds are open every day, dawn to dusk. The museum was home to three generations of the Black family and features many of their possessions. The family patriarch, John Black, was an agent for a major landowner in the region, and built the mansion house in 1824–27. There are over two miles of hiking trails, a nationally sanctioned croquet court, gardens, fields, and forest open to the public all year. The Black House Museum was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969.
